Fiveamprayer, we are talking about divorce today. The terrible outcome of a marriage that is not upheld, honored nor given the proper respect. Marriage is very important to Yahweh. We have in our doubtful intellect sought better ways for marriage. In the Hebraic culture in the previous centuries the marriage was arranged by the groom's father and the brides father. There was an agreement of what was to be done for the bride and how the groom was to care for her. Upon the agreement of all involved, the ketubah or marriage covenant was signed and was to be honored. The children of Israel were the bride of Yahweh. He vowed to take care of her to uphold and protect her. The children of Israel also made a vow at Mount Sinai in their reply--Exodus 19:8 And all the people answered together, and said, All that the Lord hath spoken we will do. And Moses returned the words of the people unto the Lord. Yet over the years it became necessary for both the house of Judah and the house of Israel to be divorced by Yahweh. But how did it come to this? From agreement and walking together--to a divorce. Let's look at the prophet Hosea who was directed to marry a harlot who continued to leave him to go back to her harlotry. That she was even captured back into her previous whoredom--he had to buy her back. We have in our innocence and misdirection have been in whoredom with pagan practices. The 365 gods of the pantheon that we have called upon, given up worship to, money and family--to those that were crafted by the hands of men. With the Greek mindset taking over the interpretation of scriptures, these gods were crafted by thought and philosophy, instead of craved idols but idols all the same. All to our deficit, our harlotry has brought us to being spiritually and physically bankrupt. Yahweh, gives His bill of divorcement, as His instructions require, to the house of Israel and the house of Judah for the distinct reason of treason which is readily seen in the people going amongst the pagan gods and offering sacrifice, children and disorderly practices to that which is false. Isaiah 54:5 (CJB) 5 For your husband is your Maker, Adonai-Tzva’ot is his name. The Holy One of Isra’el is your Redeemer. He will be called the God of all the earth. As the husband of Israel He cares for them and has a plan to redeem them. The appearance of Yahweh in the flesh as Yeshua, He is redeeming His wayward bride, in Hebraic culture only a groom that died for the sins of His bride and raised back to life could take her back. In the marriage the one who transgressed the covenant was to die, but only Yeshua could raise Himself back to life to remarry His bride. Jeremiah 3:8 CJB I saw that even though backsliding Isra’el had committed adultery, so that I had sent her away and given her a divorce document, unfaithful Y’hudah her sister was not moved to fear — instead she too went and prostituted herself. Take time out this weekend and look up these scriptures and ask the Holy Spirit to give you understanding that you would return to your bridegroom, Yeshua. He offered Himself to be able to re-marry His harlot bride, you. Won't you return to His original intent that we find in the very beginning. To hear this weekend meditation again click here.
